Pink Chiyogami

A very rich pink & gold print Japanese paper is called Chiyogami or Yuzen.

"Chiyogami" is a specific word developed in Japan to describe a repeat pattern or design applied to paper - gami means paper. Originally these patterns were printed by woodblock but today these patterns are applied using silkscreens. The colours are incredibly rich.

These fine papers can be cut into strips and used as borders for wedding invitations or greeting cards.
